NADA Miami 2022

Daniel Ingroff’s paintings start from photographic source material, such as the artist’s personal collection of iPhone images or vintage books, found photographs, and magazines that explore bodily relations between the subject and the outside world. His highly rendered paintings engage with the intimacy and psychology of being seen, alternating between sharing information about the artist’s internal emotional life, and using the artist’s body as a stand-in for familiar experience. There is a sense of the world that his paintings occupy: intimate, a bit funny, a bit sinister, at times melancholic, and full of a sense of wonder.
